MEMernet: Mattress Guy, Top Comment, and UFO App

Crosstown mystery revealed, the Graceland kerfuffle, and catching aliens over Memphis.

Memphis on the internet.

Mattress Man

The MEMernet buzzed about a guy walking around Crosstown with a mattress attached to his back. But no one really knew what was going on. Now we do!

Musician Nick Black dreamed up the mattress rig and took it for a spin to promote his new single “Future Me’s Problem.”

Posted to Facebook by Elvis Presley’s Graceland

The Memphis subreddit piled on contempt for that weird investment company … or whatever … that tried and failed to sue Riley Keough … for something … in a move that would have put Graceland on the auction block. (Big h/t to The Daily Memphian for breaking the story.)

Top comment, however, goes to u/erichsommer, to whom it was clear that the investment firm “ain’t never caught a rabbit.”
